Every single day of the week, a new Graboid appears on this site for you to guess the name of the film, share with your officemates, or discuss on our message boards. Sometimes the graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be as obscure as obscure gets. So read the news, read the reviews, … Continue reading
In Paradise Now two seemingly normal, every day slacker types are recruited to become suicide bombers in Israel. The film follows them from their selection, their preparation and their entry into Israel – where things go wrong. Will they be able to finish their mission? And will they want to? As you can tell, Paradise … Continue reading
War is hell. We know that from watching Hollywood’s output of war movies. Now Jarhead comes along to show us another side of that – no war is hell, too. Anthony Swofford has joined the Marines, making “a wrong turn on the way to college.” He’s got a pretty girlfriend back home wearing his USMC … Continue reading
Because hookers are fucking funny (prostitute puns!), Jennifer Love Hewitt, who sometimes dresses like one, is planning to just go ahead and portray one in an upcoming comedy. The deep-cleavaged cutie will bring her increasingly pendulous breasts to a movie about a homecoming queen turned housewife harlot, based on an article called "She Had Brains, a Body, … Continue reading

Spielberg’s mouthpiece Martin … Continue reading
The flick? Monster House. The locale? Sony Studios in Culver City, California. The agenda? Find out what in the flying balls this film is all about. I do regret to inform that I did not get punched in the tit (or pec, as my chest is in fact QUITE sculpted… ahem) by Richard Dreyfuss like … Continue reading
